POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Empty World
emptiness that exceeds thought
enveloping the mind
reaching out into the world
coming and going
nothing slowing it down
nothing stopping it
just one bodies existance
and space
infinite like thought
the feeling of being alone
enveloping the mind
reaching out into the world
coming and going
nothing slowing it down
nothing stopping it
just one bodies existance
and space
infinite like thought
the feeling of being alone

Are We Fine?
Why do you keep chasing after me
Even though you know
you should let go
I say so many bad things
And I call you so many names
But you keep chasing me
You don't deserve my bad behavior
But I don't deserve yours
Even though you seem to think we're fine
And then I start to give in
But you make a mistake
And we start this all over again
Do you honestly think we are fine?
Even though you know
you should let go
I say so many bad things
And I call you so many names
But you keep chasing me
You don't deserve my bad behavior
But I don't deserve yours
Even though you seem to think we're fine
And then I start to give in
But you make a mistake
And we start this all over again
Do you honestly think we are fine?

Hands entwined
A perfect fit
A firm grip
Hands entwined
So safe and free
Fingers just the right size
Wanting nothing but you by my side
Not wanting to let go
Firm yet gentle
Words unspoken
But through our hands
We understand
Our hands entwined
Leaves only love in mind
A firm grip
Hands entwined
So safe and free
Fingers just the right size
Wanting nothing but you by my side
Not wanting to let go
Firm yet gentle
Words unspoken
But through our hands
We understand
Our hands entwined
Leaves only love in mind

What If I Could...? Would You Love Me?
I wonder what would happen if I could fly?
Would I see the sun go bye?
Would I laugh and not cry?
Would I love and not die?
Could I see everyone I miss?
If I could fly would you love me?
If you don't love me then,
What If I could swim like a fish?
Would I love the water more?
Would I watch the others swim?
Would I find a mermaid?
Would I sneak up on the people I love?
Would you love me then?
If I could swim like a fish would you love me then?
If you still can't love me then what about this,
What if I could be the...

What You Think Of Me
What do you think of me?
Am I useless?
Am I nothing,
Or am I something.
You look at me with a blank face,
You talk to me in a rough tone,
But you never ignore me.
You smile at me,
Though it’s rare,
But you don't seem to care.
I look for reasons why,
But the answers never appear.
So please tell me what I am to you.
Am I nothing?
Am I a friend?
Am I something more?
Or am I just like not there but there.
Please I beg you tell me what I am to you.

You Think I'm Scared Of You?
You seem to think I am scared of you.
Well let me tell you why I think different.
My anger is silent like a mouse,
And as deadly as a cobra.
My fear is of myself,
Not knowing what I’ll do next.
My anger is what you should be scared of.
It’s as sneaky as a ninja,
And as deadly as I want.
Killing is my agenda,
Waiting for the time,
You are the reason why,
You are my target.
So YOU think I’m scared of you?
Well I think different.
I’m like a crazy person when angry,
A baby when happy,
And a mime when sad.
But you think I’m...

Don't lead me on
Don’t touch me unless you love me
My heart can only take so much
I’m only looking for true love
I want to be able to stand strong
So don’t lead me on
If you love me tell me from your heart
Show me how much you care
Show me that I’m your number one
Hold me tight and never let go
Make me feel important
But most of all tell me that you love me
But if you’re going to lead me on
Tell me that I’m not really the one
Hurt me right away
It's much better then the others pain
Don’t play with me like a doll
My feelings are too fragile...

Where Do I Belong?
I sit and watch,
while some girls laugh,
and others cry.
While some guys party,
and others fight.
As I watch all I see is all that is not like me,
calm and shy,
sometimes cross and sly,
but never do I seem to fit.
So I sit and watch in a corner alone.
Where do you say I belong?
I am weak but strong,
fragile but never do I seem to break,
caring yet daring,
loving yet hating.
So where do I belong?
Do I stay in this corner and watch the girls and guys?
Do I seek my place with others?
Do I wait for someone...

I Can't Act Like I Used To
You let go of me a long time ago,
but unfortunately for me I couldn't let you go.
I think about what would be best and I already know.
I hide what I feel,
it's better for you to never know.
I will no longer show you feelings so secret.
I will no longer let you hear my voice,
see my face,
or feel my touch.
You wish for me to be like I used to be,
but I just can't do that.
For to do that would mean to forget everything,
everything I treasure dear.
Even one memory I wish to never forget.
The feeling of finally being loved for being me and...

How Can I Forget?
Every time I close my eyes I see you,
and I remember that you're not mine.
I feel small while you seem so big.
How do I forget you?
How do I erase the memories?
Do I have to hate you to forget?
Do I have to hurt to forget?
Do I have to cry?
Well I do hate you because you're not mine.
I hate you because it hurts,
and I hate you because I cry all the time.
Why do I still love you?
and I remember that you're not mine.
I feel small while you seem so big.
How do I forget you?
How do I erase the memories?
Do I have to hate you to forget?

Do I have to cry?
Well I do hate you because you're not mine.
I hate you because it hurts,
and I hate you because I cry all the time.
Why do I still love you?

when did I become this weak?
Now I know I was wrong,
because I can't be that strong.
I say to others that they are drama queens/kings.
But what's wrong with me I have Become one of those drama queens/kings.
I watch myself make up things that don't belong.
What's come over me when did I become this weak?
What happened to me being so strong?
When did I start lieing to everyone around me?
Was it just to get attention or was it so someone would try to understand me,
or did I do it so I wouldn't get hurt by others anymore,
or was it just so they didn't look down on me?
I don't know...

When Hell Breakes Loose Please Come To Me
When hell brakes loose and no one's around who would you go to?
I wish it were me but I know that's not so.
Even if i'm wanting you to.
Sometimes I wish you would come to me not just because you want to talk but because I want you to listen.
I always seem strong but that's all I let on.
Have you seen me cry or scream?
Sometimes all I need is some one to know.
But I guess that's not so.
I still wish you would come to me if hell breaks loose because that's the least I can do.
